Waveney River Tours Ltd runs seasonal Broads cruises from Oulton Broad near Lowestoft and well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome onboard. The operator sails from Easter through to the end of October, offering a brilliant way to explore the waterways with your dog by your side rather than leaving them at home. Scheduled public sailings run during the season, with private bookings available year-round, weather permitting.
Dogs must remain on lead throughout the cruise and there's a limit of one dog per person. It's a properly dog-friendly boat trip, so you can both enjoy the Broads together without the usual tangled-lead chaos of keeping everyone entertained on dry land. The office is open from 10:00 to 14:00 during the season.
Pay-and-display parking is available within about 100 yards of the departure point. Check the operator's website for the cruise schedule, fares and booking details before you set off.
